Just finished him myself.

Just killed Micolash. Does anyone have a proper tactic for him? I just pinned him against a wall and beat the crap out of him until I ran out of stamina. Rinse repeat

That's pretty much it. Easy fight, but the whole running around thing is a pain in the arse. Spent more time than I should have on this fight. Could try throwing poison blades at him maybe?

Ok so after a bit of practice I managed to make it to Hemwick cementery.

Now, I also managed to go through the whole witches part, at the end I decided I rather go back and spend my money before progressing (this was right before getting to the big sword ogre twins and the 3 dogs.

So I did, went back bought a few things but now I can't spawn at the Hemwick cementery, it is not in the list, I had to start again from the Cathedral Ward and walk all the way up again (not a big deal) but when I got to the two ogres with swords, last one killed me and I spawn again at the cathedral?

Is this normal?

If you haven't activated a lamp, then this is normal.

There are alternative versions of each weapon in them (same stats but different gem slots) and the best blood gems and some of the highest tier runes only drop in the depth 5 root dungeons (hardest randomly generated dungeons).

Yeah I was freaking out because I had like over 40k credit and needed to get to the same spot without dying so I could recover those "coins", thankfully I did just before I died so I got them on my third attempt but it was much easier to make it there from the cementery than from the cathedral... well more like shorter.

Have all the badges and all but one hunters tool, think I'm almost good to go Excitement building.

I'll also need time to figure out the dolls hint... :rolleyes:

The Pthumerian Elder in the Lower Hintertomb dungeon is a proper bastard.

Hits like a truck, has a crossbow and ranged fire attacks, can turn invisible and teleport around the arena. I mean come on....

Finally killed him, took about 20 attempts.

Sweet relief.

Time and again this game impresses me with its level design. I was wandering around the forbidden woods for what seemed like ages, getting further and further away from the warm glow of the Hunters Dream lamp. Then I opened up a door and was right back at the lamp.

Now if I could only find the boss in this area.

Digital Solitude

Finally finished 30 something hours

i think i found every secret in those woods Before finding the boss, he's hidden well enough but damn, From Software are geniuses when it comes to level design.

Cleric Beast, Father Gascoigne, BSB, Vicar Amelia and the Hemlock witch

. Currently wandering the Forbidden Woods.

Oh. I'm starting to feel a little burnt out on the game. It is the furthest I've managed to get in a Souls game and it has been a real struggle at times. I was hoping I was close to the end and that would spur me on.

Anyone give us a hand with a boss? I'm level 83 its Amygdala.

Witches are gone!

Easier than the previous boss the blooded depraved beast of whatever its name was, had to summon Alfred to help me killing it, this one was done in the 2nd try as soon as I figure out what was going on..

Liking it very much so far, very addictive, thank God for that guy in youtube EpicNameBro otherwise I would be lost

The first few hours are really god damn difficult in this. I've over 500 hours combined in the sounds games and it took me 2 save files to even beat the first boss here.

Are you finding that you're starting to die less against regular mobs? It should be about now that you're starting to hit your stride and you become very capable against almost all enemies up until the final 10% or so, when IMO the difficulty spiked.

It starts hard, but doesn't get much harder for a long time.

Digital Solitude

What level were you guys when you finished the game? I'm 65, and judging from some people online that's very low. I even seen someone on Gamefaqs who was 'only level 82'

I'm actually finding I'm not dying to often when roaming around. At the start of the game I was dying all the time and also found it tough in the second big area. But now I'm feeling confident I can go out and explore and make it back to the lamp with a bunch of souls to level up.

I think I just put so many hours into the first section of the game, up to the BSB (because it killed me so many times) that I'm just feeling like I've been playing it for ages. Back in work now tomorrow anyway so I'll be getting a good break from it.

It doesn't feel like so much of a slog from here on in when you're playing I.e. No more stuck at one boss for like 3 days (Unless its optional like Ebritas )
